Odlaw — Mi(l)d Life Crisis

Odlaw release their fourth studio album Mi(l)d Life Crisis on Blue Grey Pink.

This record feels very real with that recorded-live-in-the-room energy, and lyrics from/for the heart and mind, crafted rather than censored. Mark Neal and this all-star band really hit it out of the park on this one.

Out on digital and a really nice vinyl pressing from suitcase records, with a very fresh t-shirt to boot. Get it all at the Odlaw Bandcamp.

Mi(l)d Life Crisis is the RTRFM Local Feature for the week of May 12th, 2025. And, is in Bandcamp’s New and Notable list.

Odlaw — Dads Love ACDC

Out now on Blue Grey Pink is the latest from Odlaw, ‘Dads Love ACDC’— the final single before the Mi(l)d Life Crisis LP arrives.

An ode to Dads and ACDC, painting a picture of Australian backyards and road trips. Odlaw does fun songs really well, upbeat, humorous, this is a big tune!

‘Dads Love ACDC’ is in the RTRFM Sound Selection for the week starting April 7th, 2025.

Brix — Grand Brix

Brix release their debut album Grand Brix.

This record is so well balanced! All the things you want from a indie album are here, plus an extra helping of harmonic and rhythmic intrigue, and…space. Meanwhile the vocal melodies really move, and are so delicately placed. Quite a stunning debut.

Grand Brix is the RTRFM Local Feature for the week starting 17th February, 2025.

Permeclipse — As The Sun Goes Down

Debut EP for Permeclipse As The Sun Goes Down is out now! The previous singles are joined by new tunes ‘Quiet Breath,’ ‘Never Forget,’ and ‘As the Sun Goes Down.’ I love the arc of this release, it finds moments of calm and space which prepare the heaviness really well. Great melody and riff writing too, all performed very accurately.

Odlaw — Dead on the Inside

Another look at the upcoming Odlaw album Mi(l)d Life Crisis with ‘Dead on the Inside,’ out now on Blue Grey Pink.

Big snare drum, buoyant tempo energy on this one, with that classic Odlaw style that flips a perhaps melancholic sentiment into a party singalong.

You can help a great bunch of folks release this record on vinyl at their Kickstarter.
